Homelessness

Proceeding contribution from Adam Holloway (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 29 January 2020. It occurred during Opposition day on Homelessness.

Absolutely, and it is another hard reality. We cannot have groups of young people in what starts as a street party but soon descends into a ghastly cycle of addiction. We have to be more robust about moving people on to prevent them from falling into addiction.

I say it again: we will get absolutely nowhere in helping these people at the very bottom—why on earth do we have social security if we cannot deal with this?—until we do what this Government are doing and understand that this is a health problem. I congratulate the Secretary of State.
